I suspect that "Phil" got the car to idle by turning the idle set screw (that I told you would be there) up - on throttle-body - to hold the throttle open just a bit.cchan wrote: Once the Alfa started again we were able to get the Alfa to finally idle (don't really know how) but the Alfa runs poorly according to Phil.
Any way, Chuck you don't need timing tools for this thing; there are clear marks on the backs of the cams to line up with the head-surfaces! Besides, you have GTA Stage I inlet cams and standard 164 exhaust cams, so you would need a mixture of cam dies from 2 models of cars.
The cam timing on this thing is perfect - don't fuck with it! It's not a cam-issue. The GoTech needs tuning right now. The shop there did not have an Innovate LM-1 or any other type of air/fuel-ratio meter - I was never able to set the idle-fueling correctly! You need to borrow or buy one and get the idle fuel right.
Maybe, wait until you go back to the dyno to do that.
At some point throw a fresh set of plugs in there too - all of the start-up and shut-down and short runs with improper fueling on top of that will foul up the plugs real fast.
Also, as far as the clutch is concerned - Andrew Garcia already told us 4-5 months ago that there must be some unknown issue with the clutch-unit that he supplied (possibly a weak pressure-plate, oil on the clutch-plate or something) and that he has another unit prepared and ready to install sitting there.)
As for GoTech's US support - I am it for units that I sell and I have not received any calls from you! Phil can call me for pointers - 425.941.4747.
